Peter has been an active member of St John for over 40 years and recently retired from paid roles. He began as a volunteer (honorary assistant) on the North Shore ambulances in 1975. He is currently secretary of the North Shore Area Committee (just commenced his 3rd term).

Peter has experience in many ambulance operational and senior management roles in both the Northern and (old) Central Regions, based in Auckland and the Northern Region South Island, based in Christchurch.

Peter has also gained knowledge and experience outside of St John in roles such as the Auckland Region Manager for ProCare Health Ltd (Primary Care), as a Health Sector Advisor at ACC headquarters and in medical equipment sales.

Peter has been at the forefront of St John leading in strategic planning, direction, and major projects for decades. Through his diligence and responsiveness, he has had a major impact on the work of St John with such successes as medical alarms, ambulance double crewing, the National Air Desk, better contractual arrangements and securing more successful funding flows.

He is looking forward to contributing to the organisation in new roles.
